Full lyrics
Vim andando pelo mundo
E parei para descansar
Vim andando pelo mundo
E parei para descansar
Na beira de uma estrada
Na sombra do Juremá
Na beira de uma estrada
Na sombra do Juremá
Eu me chamo pai Francisco
Sou honesto e trabalhador
Eu sou mestre na jurema
Foi tupã quem me criou
Translation
I came walking through the world
And stopped to rest
I came walking through the world
And stopped to rest
On the side of a road
In the shade of the Juremá
On the side of a road
In the shade of the Juremá
My name is Father Francisco
I am honest and hardworking
I am a master in Jurema
It was Tupã who created me
